Uber Partners with Company Hoping to Bring Channel Tunnel Services Back to Kent
- Uber has entered into a marketing partnership with Gemini Trains to co-brand international rail services connecting London with destinations in Europe via the Channel Tunnel, set to begin operations in 2029.
- Gemini Trains is developing proposals to introduce cross-border rail routes starting from London St Pancras, with stops including Ebbsfleet, Kent, a station that Eurostar ceased serving in March 2020.
- Gemini Trains, led by Lord Berkeley, intends to acquire a fleet of ten new trains to operate routes connecting London with Paris and Brussels, promising affordable prices and frequent departures.
- Andrew Brem, Uber UK's general manager, said the collaboration is a step in helping people travel conveniently, with tickets bookable through Uber's app and value on brand-new trains.
- The partnership could revive international services at Ebbsfleet, easing travel for Kent passengers who currently must travel to London, while Eurostar's return is hindered by pandemic debts and Brexit.
